Step-by-step math

Every number below is computed from the input, nothing is looked up.

1. RGB ÷ 255
```
R = 0.5059
G = 0.5490
B = 0.9725
```

2. max, min, Δ

max = 0.9725
min = 0.5059
Δ = max − min = 0.4667

3. L
```
L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.7392 = 73.92%
```

4. S

S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.8947 = 89.47%

5. H

max is B → H = 60° × ((R − G) / Δ + 4) = 60° × ((0.5059 − 0.5490) / 0.4667 + 4) = 234.45°

6. HSL
```
hsl(234.45 89.47% 73.92%)
```
